Gah! I just priced two weeks in Japan from PHL. 3-4x the price of going to Europe. Still, I’d love to go. #travel #japan

I think I want to change one minor thing on the cover. It will make the title more distinct/readable. The bounding box segment under the “T” needs to go or be made shorter. #publishing #cover #proof.

Anyone remember Tomagachi? There should be a book entitled, “The Tomagachi Murders.” #book #writing

It’s like spring. 65º in Delaware
